Q.) When the nuke was launched into the air why did it explode in the air and not the surface ground?

A.) Airbursting a nuke in low orbit would knock out a ton of stuff with an EMP, but wouldn't cause massive death and destruction on the ground. Price didn't want to fuck up too much of the capitol....

Q.) Remember the Russian leader who planned the airport mission, what happened to him at the end? Did he die?

A.) Still alive, and probably in MW3!!

Q.) After everyone fucked over each other in the story, the 2 marines who were
still alive, Price and some other guy. Who did they rely on for trust and info? How did they know where to go?

A.) They weren't Marines, they were former SAS. Captain Price and Soap MacTavish, both from MW1. Nikolai was the deep undercover asset they rescued in MW1.....

Q.) Which mission was offensive that they asked if people should skip it or not?

A.) The one where you are with Makarov and shooting the civilians in the Airport ("No Russian" is the mission.) Some don't like the idea of whacking civilians. I pulled the trigger like crazy though.... I know, I'm a sick bastard!

Q.) Which 2 marines got burned alive? Roach and Ramaeriz? or who?

A.) Roach and Ghost, and they were Task Force 141, not Marines and likely former SAS. No Marines in this one, but Army Rangers instead.

1. Technically, nukes do explode in the air anyway. But, Price programed the nuke to detonate in low orbit causing an EMP.

2. He is still alive. Hopefully a MW3 comes out to finish or continue the story.

3. Who knows

4. No Russian.

5. Roach and Ghost.

6. Easy, our tech. and codes were compromised by the ACS unit the Russians decoded and caught us off guard.

7. Our allies are not our allies anymore because "we" went into the airport and intentionally killed civilians.

Ok now I have a better input on whats going on. I too pulled the trigger like no tmrw, I even killed the people crawling on the floor.

And, what was the point of Roach and Ghost getting fucked over? by Shepherd or whatever? Did Shepered and Marakov want to take over the world?

And how did our allies know "we" Americans killed those civilians? Marakov and his mean were all Russian? I know you play as one undercover guy to help them but how?

I though Nukes hit the ground because it causes more damage? Why would price be involved with the nuke? I though price and the other guy were the ones who killed shepered?

Didnt the Russians launch the nukes?

1. Marakov knew Allen was an American so he shot him and left him to take the blame which would start the war. Though I would think security cameras would prove it was Marakov unless unknown to us, they took the tapes as well. And Allen was stupid enough to wear something that would identify him as an American.

2. Nope, nukes detonate ~2000 ft above the ground I believe it is. Price was helping to save DC. Since nukes can create an EMP, Price had it detonate in low orbit and created an EMP. But, the force of the nuke still took out the ISS.

3. No Price did. Yes, it was a Russian sub, but Price went in and took over the missile control room and launched the nuke.

Since the US troops were outnumbred by all the tanks and helicopters in DC....the EMP can force the Russians to fight on foot instead, which turns out the US troops had the upper hand on ground fights....

One thing tho....isn't EMP is to fry all the electronic boards???
Then how come there were still many tanks and helicopters during the Whiskey Hotel stage (after the EMP) and the Javelin is still working???

Ok so Price did do it. But I though Price was on the good side? Dont we play as price on the last mission?

What did the american wear that gave it away when they found the body?

Man, just go and shoot some fuckers in the face and blow some shit up! There are likely a few inconsistencies, but that is typical.

Oh, and Price launched the nuke not so much to wipe out any advantage in DC that the Russians had, but to bring the world back onto the side of the US. They think we killed a bunch of civvies and went ape shit, now they think the Russians went way overboard and launched a friggin' nuke at the US.

Easily best first person shooter I've ever played. Anyone do the second to last mission in the spec ops? It's you against 10 juggernuts. In the description it says you gotta be insane to try this haha I spent 4 hours playing and still lost

"Colonel Sanders" is 7 chickens in 10 seconds. Harder to get that than I thought, those damn chickens will take some hits!

Spec Ops is kicking my butt now......

After clear out all enemies...i managed to found 4-5 chickens still alive stacked together....and a 3 others on other side....so i threw a grenade to the bunched up chicken and start to shoot the rest...
